Ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (APXPS) has emerged as an important technique for investigating surface and interface chemistry under realistic conditions, overcoming the limitations of conventional XPS restricted to ultrahigh vacuum. This review highlights the capabilities and scientific impact of APXPS at the MAX IV Laboratory, the world’s first fourth-generation synchrotron li
This dissertation coins the term algorithmic aspirational control (AAC) to describe an emergent configuration of algorithmic control. In this class of algorithmic management systems, computer-programmed procedures direct workers toward organizational goals through prompts, personal productivity dashboards, targeted algorithmic recommendations, and other forms of digital nudging. Drawing on Michel
AI methods allow for a multitude of new forms of managerial control. One is algorithmic nudging, in which organizations use AI methods to control workers through targeted recommendations. Drawing upon Michel Foucault's analytical strategies, the paper examines the intellectual heritage and ideological roots of AI-nudges. Scholars have commented on the resemblance between algorithmic nudging and Ta
Introduction: The transition from pediatric to adult healthcare represents a crucial period for adolescents and youth living with HIV. When this healthcare transition is not properly managed, it can result in negative outcomes such as loss to follow-up (LTFU), increased morbidity, and mortality. Therefore, it is essential to estimate the incidence rate and identify predictors of loss to follow-up
In this work, we use a time-warping-based morphology variation index, dwPCATpe, computed between the peak and the end of the T-wave, and assess its association with the occurrence of ventricular fibrillation (VF) episodes (VF group) in ECG recordings from 20 pigs undergoing a 40-minute coronary occlusion. The dwPCATpe series was obtained by quantifying the morphological differences between the fin
This paper traces the evolution of managerial thought, from the time of industrialization in Europe to the present day, to build a conceptual infrastructure for studying the continuously evolving phenomenon of algorithmic management. We develop this account using Foucault's genealogical method in order to expand the dominant view of algorithmic management as merely a form of digital Taylorism and
This systematic literature review investigates the relationship between air pollution exposure and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), encompassing Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Despite the growing concern over air pollution's impact on various health outcomes, studies specifically addressing effects on the digestive system, particularly IBD, are relatively rare. This review aims
The implementation of new data regulation has put pressure on organizations to govern their data. However, research on data governance typically focuses on the optimal design of rules and decisionmaking about data. In this paper, we argue that the significant work that goes into responding, when data use is challenged on the basis of regulation, is a legitimate subset of data governance practice.
Critical IS research agendas are more important than ever if we wish to uncover the unanticipated and potentially harmful consequences of digital technologies. Developed from Michel Foucault’s late work, we introduce the problematization lens as a critical IS research strategy for exploring discursive commitments embedded in digital phenomena. The problematization lens is characterized by a geneal
Ultracold quantum gases with long-range anisotropic interactions host novel exotic phases of matter, such as supersolids, exhibiting both rigid and superfluid characteristics. The impact of this interplay on the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of dipolar gases, and in particular its connection with universal turbulent behavior, remains highly unexplored. Here, upon considering a dipolar Bose-Einstein
Decarbonizing the existing building stock is essential, especially as buildings in the EU (85% built before 2000) account for a third of energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. This study examines adaptive reuse of underutilized structures as a sustainable alternative to demolition and new construction. It addresses the surplus of redundant buildings, driven partly by needs for heritage conservat
Background: 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) affects immune function, bone health, and reproduction. The precursor of 25(OH)D3, vitamin D3, is synthesized upon ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure, the levels of which vary. Methods: In a one-year observational study, we used multiple statistical approaches to examine 25(OH)D3 metabolism and UV exposure in 217 healthy men (aged 30–50 years) not using
Objective: Childhood stunting is a significant health issue in Rwanda, particularly within the Northern Province. While demographic and socio-economic factors have been more extensively studied, the impact of environmental and climatic factors on stunting prevalence has received less attention. This study aimed to determine if these factors could be used to better predict localized variations in h
In urban growth modeling methods, researchers typically determine an appropriate scale based on various factors such as the extent of the study area, the scale of available data, and the level of detail required. With rapid urbanization, cities and towns have grown dramatically, leading to the emergence of numerous megalopolitan areas worldwide. In these areas, which include small and large cities
Aerosols can influence vegetation through multiple processes, yet the resulting biophysical climate feedback from the vegetation response remains poorly understood. Here, using an ensemble of Earth system models and an observation-based empirical model, we show that the vegetation response to complete removal of anthropogenic aerosols can either cool or warm the local climate by up to 0.039 ± 0.02
This article examines how the Muslim veil and call to prayer are constructed as social problems in motions to the Swedish parliament between 2010 and 2024. Analyzing 120 political proposals, the study reveals how these religious practices are portrayed as problematic by constructing them as threatening to Swedish values, particularly gender equality and secularism. Using Carol Lee Bacchi’s “What’s
Objective To investigate the relationship between active commuting and atherosclerosis in middle age using state-of-the-art coronary CT angiography (CCTA). Methods This cross-sectional study used data from the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS) and included 23 722 randomly recruited individuals aged 50–64 years from six different regions in Sweden. The exposure was commuting mode, ass
Introduction/Background: Measurement of umbilical cord blood gasesat birth is the gold standard of capturing the metabolic state of the newborn. Dual sampling of umbilical cord vessels is mandatory, yet the longterm predictive value of venoarterial differences, ΔpH, remain undetermined. Previously, large ΔpH showed a protective effect against adverseneonatal outcomes.Objectives: To investigate the
In the late Middle Ages, hundreds of Christians from all over Europe sent supplications to the Papal Curia to be freed from promises made under duress. This article analyses the supplications about forced marriages that were submitted to the Apostolic Penitentiary during the pontificate of Pope Innocent VIII (1484–92). The study is based on mainly unedited source material that has not been investi
Timely, detailed information on forest composition is essential for effective management, biodiversity protection, and understanding ecosystem dynamics. This study maps the distribution of seven dominant tree species in Swedish forests and produces spatially explicit, pixel-level estimates of classification uncertainty. The mapping framework integrates multitemporal Sentinel-1 radar and Sentinel-2
